I have the 360 with a Edelbrock Performer Package installed on my motor, to include the carb, intake, exhaust and cam.
I just bought a vacuum gauge and hooked it up to my manifold. It bounced around between 5 and 15. When I revved the motor it moved appropriately but still bounced significantly.
I know that a huge cam will cause lots of bouncing but is the edelbrock performer cut "huge?"
I disconnected/plugged the vacuum bulb at the end of the motor and used the brake hose to hook up my gauge.
I know there is something you can spray around the carb and intake to check for leaks, is it ether/starting fluid? I also adjusted the carb using the guage as my guide and couldn't raise the vacuum any more. I don't have a timing light but I think it was set to about 12' when I installed the motor.
